You can keep your cat out of your baby's room by employing these strategies.

Parents who prefer to keep the cat out of the babys room both before and after the babys arrival should invest in animal deterrents to train kitty to stay out. Manufacturers offer a variety of products including motion detectors, sound alarms, spray alarms, static or mild shock deterrents, double-sided adhesives and scent deterrents. Also, check with your veterinarian for additional strategies to keep kitty from invading the babys space.
